RemoteRemoteLegalFull-time
Key Responsibilities
- You run CDK like its own business. You're measured on outcomes, not output – adoption, conversion, expansion, and reliability, not specs written or features shipped – and you're the single point of accountability for those numbers across Legal, Engineering, Design, GTM, and Customer Success.
- Grow CDK as a product line. Own its arc from configuration tool to the compliance platform others build on, and the adoption, revenue, and expansion that prove it.
- Land new verticals. Turn the regulation-agnostic engine into shipped revenue in new categories – AI, regulated commerce, whatever's next – by building primitives that generalize instead of one-offs per customer.
- Define the primitive. Identify the core abstractions that make CDK genuinely differentiated (permission strings, jurisdictional rule engines, consent orchestration) and partner with engineering to build them.
- Run the pod, not just the roadmap. You own the "what" and the "why," then you own the build – the cadence, the unblocking, the in-the-weeds calls with engineering, not a deck you hand off.
Minimum Qualifications
- 8+ years of product management experience, with a track record of owning technically complex platforms, infrastructure, or developer tools.
- Exceptional product and operational judgment in high-ambiguity environments.
- The ability to read API documentation, engage on system architecture tradeoffs, and think in systems.
- A productization instinct: you understand the difference between "one customer wants this" and "the market needs this."
- Extreme speed and clarity in communication, proactively sharing status, blockers, and tradeoffs with leadership.
- World-class product taste and strong opinions on what great developer and end-user platforms look like.
- You hold alignment across Legal, Engineering, GTM, and customers without waiting for consensus – and you say no well.
